A hypercarry support who grants Military Merit, duplicates powerful Skills and scales her buffs from very high personal ATK.
Cerydra build overview
Cerydra is a Wind Harmony character commonly used for support, skill duplication, atk scaling. The recommended build focuses on the part of the kit used most often while keeping the team rotation reliable.
Use Sacerdos' Relived Ordeal as the primary Relic set and Lushaka, the Sunken Seas as the Planar Ornament. Recommended main stats are ATK%, SPD / ATK%, ATK%, Energy Regen / ATK%. Secure important Speed, Effect Hit Rate or Break Effect requirements first when the kit needs them, then improve the character's main scaling and offensive or defensive substats.
Light Cones and alternatives
Epoch Etched in Golden Blood is the premium Light Cone because its passive is designed around Cerydra's core mechanics. The build remains functional without it. provide practical alternatives when their passives stay active in the selected team. Strong Relic stats can be more valuable than forcing a theoretical equipment upgrade with poor synergy.
Recommended teams
- Premium team: Phainon, Cerydra, Sunday, Huohuo. This formation keeps Cerydra in the core role while covering damage amplification, turn economy and sustain.
- Alternative team: Anaxa, Cerydra, Robin, Huohuo. This formation keeps Cerydra in the core role while covering damage amplification, turn economy and sustain.
- Accessible team: Archer, Cerydra, Sparkle, Gallagher. This formation keeps Cerydra in the core role while covering damage amplification, turn economy and sustain.

Trace priority
- Lower priority: King's Castling
- High priority: Pawn's Promotion
- Highest priority: Scholar's Mate

Investment advice
Start with character and Light Cone levels, major Traces and correct main stats before extended Relic farming. An E0 build with a suitable alternative Light Cone is intended to be complete.
